It is a bad temptation that comes to
some young people to scorn or avoid

doing in secret things which parents
would disapprove is, as has been wise-

most remarkable and well authenti-

hundreds of testimonials of won-
derful recoveries wrought with the
Great South American Nervine Tonto
were received from men and women

began to prescribe this great remedy
